Not to mention the penalty shout (they’re doesn’t have to be intent)
Personally I don’t care because it’s “what we do” having sod all possession is what we’ve done for years. We can’t afford the players who can hold onto the ball so we have to press high & defend like we’ve always done

We are due a little bit of luck and thats what we are getting at the moment. Usually its the other way round when we get shit refs that fuck us up. How we never got a pen yesterday when Cooper was man handled by 3 Luton players last night i will never know.

Probably sounds silly, but you could argue that we scored too early, if the after thought is then to sit back and invite teams on.
Obviously an element of being penned back as well.
I don't like that tactic (doesn't do my ticker any good), but if that is how a game pans out, we need to learn to keep the ball better and have some pace as an out ball.
Very few teams wouldn't concede like that, turns into a bit of an attack v defence training ground exercise.

if there was VAR we would be getting a penalty most games with the way cooper is rugby tackled..so these all even out one way or another

Bit of an odd question really but you don’t get to be sitting in 5th place come March in the championship by being lucky.

This.
We don't and we don't have much luck. I suppose we could always go a goal down and keep our fingers crossed. You don't reach the top six by luck.

...or are we doing what all good teams do, grinding out results even when not playing well?
23 games since we switched to 4 at the back. 12 wins, 7 draws, 4 defeats, 43 points.
You don't get runs like that just down to luck!

^ and that is only 3 points short of automatic promotion form (2 points per game)

I believe that's their preferred location but if you bumped into a bear having a dump in Zampa Road, would you point out to it that it's defecating in the wrong place?
Polar bears tend not to due to a shortage of forestation in the regions where they like to reside
100% on both points mate!

You can point to our goal being marginally offside but that equals out our ‘goal’ vs Sunderland that was wrongly disallowed by the arsehole that was reffing that day. I’m sure somewhere along the line that Luton have had, or will have a big decision go their way.

No fuck that. I'd get AOB to do that.

I don't like the cold so know very little about polar bears, but that sounds like a very plausible explanation to me
